Well, I wouldn't mind resizing my ext2 partition on my desktop machine..
there's a nice 3GB dos partition where I throw tar.gz files that I could
use..
I know of at least 2 partition programs for dos, unfortunetly they don't
come with source, and besides, I do not want to get back into dos
interrupts and lowlevel coding. (Can't believe I just said.. Gone are
the old demo days..)
I'm going to keep an eye on this project though. The author says he
releases snapshots everyday.
Anyway, maintaining and supporting my current software is a big enough
drain on me to deter me from this in any event.. wishful thinking in my
previous email. Now if only there were 48 hours in a day.
Donncha.
